This place is so cute! I visited with a friend in October as we were wanting to participate in some fun local fall activities. I bought a small pumpkin and we enjoyed walking around the grounds and taking pictures. read more

Strawberry Hollow Farm is a farm and craft shop that opened in Guilford, Connecticut in 1969. It was founded by Harvey Smith. Initially the farm's main crop was strawberries, and thus the farm was named Strawberry Hollow Farm for their main crop and for the hollow that it sits in. Harvey's government work as a research wildlife biologist took him out of the country and away from his farm in June, the most important month for strawberries. By 1981, Harvey transitioned from growing strawberries to growing members of the pumpkin family, because the growing schedule for pumpkins matched his work schedule. When he retired in 2001, Harvey realized his dream to farm his land full time. In addition to farming crops, Strawberry Hollow Farm also has a small gift shop where they sell various crafts. My family and I recently visited Strawberry Hollow Farm for the first time. There are so many different varieties of pumpkins and other various gourds on display, and their mums were just breathtaking. My wife and I dressed our son like Linus from "Peanuts". There were several spots on the farm for us to stage a "It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" photo shoot. In addition to jack-o-lantern pumpkins and sugar pumpkins, Harvey cultivates giant pumpkins that can weigh up to 300 pounds (the kind that you see at a County Fair). The craft shop was really cool too; lots of Autumn and Halloween decorations. In the winter months, everything is themed around Christmas decorations. We purchased a couple of sugar pumpkins to take with us. We enjoyed our time at Strawberry Hollow Farm and we plan on returning in the future. read more

Adorable little farm stand right off the road! We went a little late in the season so limited pumpkins left, but what was left was nice. Inside they sell candles and some handcrafted holiday decor. Candles are awesome but the knick knacks are overpriced for sure. This family is quite hospitable though, you're sure to leave with a smile :) read more

It just does not get any better than SHF, Harvey is the secret weapon. Every year we visit in search for the perfect decoration to adorn our courtyard and this year we got the Blue Ribbon Winner! We are always pleased as the creations Harvey comes up with get more spectacular each season, this year was no exception. Just delighted and privileged to know Harvey! read more

It is hard for me to put into words what Strawberry Hollow Farm means to me. I have been coming to this farm since I was a little girl to pick pumpkins from their patch and then go into the small gift shop and shop for holiday decorations with my mom. I have had some of my fondest holiday memories (and pictures) from this shop. It is truly so special. The owner is lovely and the employees are also fantastic. It is a small shop that carries one-of-a-kind gift items in their shop. They are only open for part of the year (I believe) so make sure you check the hours before you go. Also, they do not get tons of items in, so once they sell out of something, you cannot get it. Therefore, if you plan on doing holiday shopping here, you should go early. In addition, make sure you take your time in this shop. It has SO many incredible items and even though some of these items appear the same, each is actually a little bit different. Some items in this store can be expensive, but not all of them are. Even if you find an item that is expensive but you love it, I say buy it. You will not find anything like it anywhere else. And also, there is no better local business to support than this one. Strawberry Hollow is such a perfect, special place. read more

This place is magical ‍, I mean it's like stepping into another magical realm from the everyday life. We stopped to browse since my daughter is obsessed with autumn and Halloween decor. Omg what a treasure chest of magical things we found inside the cottage that looks like should be in a fairytale. Yes actually the whole place is like stepping inside a fairytale my daughter's face lit up like the brightest star. We loved browsing the autumn items and purchased some candles and colorful mums. We can't wait to return to see the Christmas decor, you can feel the love and dedication the owner puts into the place for sure. Grateful for a lil sparkle of magic into our everyday lives especially now . read more
